Tau-function formulation for bright,dark soliton and breather solutions to the massive Thirring model

In the present paper, we are concerned with the link between the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili–Toda (KP–Toda) hierarchy and the massive Thirring (MT) model. First, we bilinearize the MT model under both the vanishing and nonvanishing boundary conditions. Starting from a set of bilinear equations of two-component KP–Toda hierarchy, we derive multibright solution to the MT model. Then, considering a set of bilinear equations of the single-component KP–Toda hierarchy, multidark soliton and multibreather solutions to the MT model are constructed by imposing constraints on the parameters in two types of tau function, respectively. The dynamics and properties of one- and two-soliton for bright, dark soliton and breather solutions are analyzed in details.     

A variety of distinct kinds of multiple soliton solutions for a ( 3 + 1)‐dimensional nonlinear evolution equation

In this work, a variety of distinct kinds of multiple soliton solutions is derived for a ( 3 + 1)‐dimensional nonlinear evolution equation. The simplified form of the Hirota's method is used to derive this set of distinct kinds of multiple soliton solutions. The coefficients of the spatial variables play a major role in the existence of this variety of multiple soliton solutions for the same equation. The resonance phenomenon is investigated as well.

Inverse scattering transforms and soliton solutions of nonlocal reverse-space nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchies

The aim of the paper is to construct nonlocal reverse-space nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) hierarchies through nonlocal group reductions of eigenvalue problems and generate their inverse scattering transforms and soliton solutions. The inverse scattering problems are formulated by Riemann-Hilbert problems which determine generalized matrix Jost eigenfunctions. The Sokhotski-Plemelj formula is used to transform the Riemann-Hilbert problems into Gelfand-Levitan-Marchenko type integral equations. A solution formulation to special Riemann-Hilbert problems with the identity jump matrix, corresponding to the reflectionless transforms, is presented and applied to -soliton solutions of the nonlocal NLS hierarchies.     

Multiple soliton solutions for the sixth-order Ramani equation and a coupled Ramani equation

In this work, the completely integrable sixth-order nonlinear Ramani equation and a coupled Ramani equation are studied. Multiple soliton solutions and multiple singular soliton solutions are formally derived for these two equations. The Hirota’s bilinear method is used to determine the two distinct structures of solutions. The resonance relations for the three cases are investigated.

Dynamical analysis of rational and semi-rational solution for a new extended (3 + 1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

This paper proposes a new extended (3 + 1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation that portrays a unique dispersion effect about $x,z$. Its integrability is confirmed via the WTC-Kruskal algorithm in Painlevé sense. $N$-soliton, breather, and $O$-type solitary wave are derived systematically at first. Then, the mixed solution composed of soliton and breather is obtained. In addition, the “long wave” limit is employed to construct rational and semi-rational solution. The rational solution can be classified as rogue wave, $T$-type solitary wave, and lump wave. The semi-rational solution has the form a hybrid of two solitons, a hybrid of rogue wave and soliton, a hybrid of lump and soliton(s), and a hybrid of lump and breather. The results may help simulate complex waves and their interactions in fluid.

Multiple soliton solutions are established to confirm the compatibility structure. Multiple singular soliton solutions are also derived. The resonance phenomenon does not exist for this model.

We establish a two‐wave mode equation for the integrable Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation, which describes the propagation of two different wave modes in the same direction simultaneously. We determine the necessary conditions that make multiple soliton solutions exist for this new equation. The simplified Hirota's method will be used to conduct this work. We also use other techniques to obtain other set of periodic and singular solutions for the two‐mode Kadomtsev‐Petviashvili equation. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

New soliton solutions for a Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) like equation coupled to a Schrödinger equation

The repeated homogeneous balance is used to construct a new exact traveling wave solution of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) like equation coupled to a Schrödinger equation, in which the homogeneous balance method is applied to solve the Riccati equation and the reduced nonlinear ordinary differential equation, respectively. Many new exact traveling wave solutions are successfully obtained, which contain rational and periodic-like solutions.

Multiple-front solutions for the Burgers–Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation

In this work, we study a completely integrable dissipative equation. The Burgers equation is extended by using the sense of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) equation.

We also apply the powerful Hirota’s bilinear method to establish exact N-soliton solutions for the derived integrable equation.

A search for lump solutions to a combined fourth-order nonlinear PDE in (2+1)-dimensions

We aim to explore new (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear equations which possess lump solutions. Through the Hirota bilinear method, we formulate a combined fourth-order nonlinear equation while guaranteeing the existence of lump solutions. The class of lump solutions is constructed explicitly in terms of the coefficients of the combined nonlinear equation via symbolic computations. Specific examples are discussed to show the richness of the considered combined nonlinear equation. Three dimensional plots and contour plots of specific lump solutions to two specially chosen cases of the equation are made to shed light on the presented lump solutions.

Based on an auxiliary Lame equation and the perturbation method, a direct method is proposed to construct asymptotic higher-order periodic solutions to some nonlinear evolution equations.

Lump solutions to the generalized (2+1)-dimensional B-type Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

Through symbolic computation with Maple, the (2+1)-dimensional B-type Kadomtsev-Petviashvili(BKP) equation is considered. The generalized bilinear form not the Hirota bilinear method is the starting point in the computation process in this paper. The resulting lump solutions contain six free parameters, four of which satisfy two determinant conditions to guarantee the analyticity and rational localization of the solutions, while the others are arbitrary. Finally, the dynamic properties of these solutions are shown in figures by choosing the values of the parameters.
